Out from Under You
When I was four, my grandparents house started sinking into Halfway Bay. It was a slow process, but it started with a bang.
I was playing in the front yard when a horrible sound of sliding stone hit me. A four-inch-wide crack had split the ground in front of me, leaving the house separated from the rest of the land.

Wow, this must be the reason it got a DD! :3 A very well written story, indeed! I love the irony at the end. Bea may have her feather pillows, but they'll only serve to rest that pretty head of hers until her black eye fades.
